It is the first DT that Dante acquires, which is most likely why Dante's DT resembles it the most, but Dante has his own DT, which is constantly implied in cutscenes, ESPECIALLY IN 4!

Majin Form is not a matured version of Rebellion's DT because it looks NOTHING like it. Not only that, but you're forgetting game mechanics in the game once again. Vendetta and the other sword are not exactly Devil Arms, yet Dante can still DT. Whether it's just a or not, the devs deliberately made it that way for reason, not just "Oh, they can use this but the power still comes from such and such" or something, no. And until the devs actually state that the Rebellion DT is Dante's literal DT, our theory still stands.

Jeez,over 80 messages! This is more than the other threads by far! :D "Hey, game developers! Let's give Dante some non-Devil Arm weapons and still allow him to DT, even without Rebellion! It'll be a great and TOTALLY LOGICAL PLAN!" Yeah, no.

I love how just a theory turned this thread into a flame-war hub.
